Terremark's representatives showed up at that EMC World 2013 conference in Las Vegas to spread the word about the new functionality that was recently added to Enterprise Cloud (eCloud) platform, the firm's highly configurable infrastructure-as-a-service solution. SiliconAngle Head Writer Winston Edmonton interviewed Jim Anthony, the vice president of sales engineering at Terremark, to bring you the insider's take on the update.
Anthony provides a bit of background about the platform before elaborating on the update. He says that Terremark launched eCloud five years ago to replace an aging managed hosting solution called Infinistructure. Unlike its predecessor, eCloud sports a console that provides admins with tools to create and destroy VM at will, and programmatic interfaces for managing firewalls and balancing workloads.
eCloud has become very popular among customers, thanks in no small part to the fact that Terremark takes user requests into consideration. The executive boasts that the company uses the rapid development methodology (or RAD) to roll out new functionality every six weeks.
The latest update includes IPv6 support, distributed access points that make the environment more reliable, and an improved API that enables developers to make use of every management function built into the primary console. The patch also includes a number of security enhancements.
Anthony says that eCloud is built for large enterprises that are heavily invested in their existing apps and physical infrastructure. According to him, the solution is sufficiently agile to address a number of different use cases: organizations that are struggling with capacity or usage spikes can "over-subscribe" to gain access to additional resources on-demand.
